AGD: ME TOO!! Congrats!! I'm taking an online class, just to get my head back in the game. Since my duties have been changed, I now have a lot of free time at work and figured this was the sign that I need to get back into school. That also means that I need to buy a laptop, since mine died a while ago.

But I am still excited!! We can support each other!!

My whole program will be online, which will be interesting. The one thing I can't do is commit to being in a class at the same time every week so this is a great option for me. In addition to the Masters, I will also qualify to take the CISSP exam, a highly desirable IT security certification. In fact, I will qualify to take that after my first 6 courses and can get a graduate certificate at that point also. Therefore, if I'm completely and totally overwhelmed at that point, I can stop. But, I'm hoping I can handle it and finish it completely.

I'm also taking grad school completely online. Finishing up my 4th semester right now, 4 more to go. 2 classes a semester 8 weeks each....It's been a busy summer and I feel incredibly overwhelmed. I'm having a very pity party kind of "i hate grad school" moment. Blegh.

Well, I submitted the first paper today. My crappy computer wouldn't let me convert to Word 2007, so I had to type it in Google docs, then paste it into Word pad, save it, upload it, THEN submit it. But I turned it in AND answered the discussion question for this week. So now I have to read seven chapters in four days. Yep, welcome back to school.

I applied to 8 schools December 2008 & was accepted into 2. I will be starting a PhD program in biochem next month! I am nervous but excited to be "Dr" me in another 4-5 years!

Lol, I remember that feeling. Now that it's a reality though - it's actually really strange to be Dr ShyViolet. Best of luck with your postgrad studies.

I just got into business grad school. Rad times.
